With dolphin it is still mounted, just behind the scene.
Going with what you've posted above, this is what I would suggest for fstab:
//vstorage1/Faculty-Staff%20Data/fsCampusDevFacilities$/Drawings /mounters/faithnetmnt/ cifs _netdev,rw,user=george.olson,password=xxxxxx 0 0
(all on one line of course).
To test it on the command line:
mount -t cifs -o rw,user=george.olson,password=xxxxxx //vstorage1/Faculty-Staff%20Data/fsCampusDevFacilities$/Drawings /mounters/faithnetmnt/
Ok, thanks again for your help. Here is what I tried. First from the command line: mount -t cifs -o rw,user=george.olson,password=******** "//vstorage1/Faculty-Staff Data/fsCampusDevFacilities$/Drawings" /mounters/faithnetmnt/ Putting the path in quotes, and allowing the space to be there between Faculty-Staff and Data, instead of %20, allowed the drive to be mounted! So I looked in /etc/mtab, and I saw that this was the line it had in there: //vstorage1/Faculty-Staff\040Data/fsCampusDevFacilities$/Drawings /mounters/faithnetmnt cifs rw,relatime,vers=1.0,cache=strict,username=george.olson,domain=FAITH,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=10.1.3.35,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=61440,wsize=65536,actimeo=1 0 0 Note that where I had %20, thinking that was the proper ascii hex code for a space, mtab put in \040 in that spot. So I put this line, with \040 in that place into fstab: //vstorage1/Faculty-Staff\040Data/fsCampusDevFacilities$/Drawings /mounters/faithnetmnt/ cifs _netdev,rw,user=george.olson,password=****** 0 0 And here is the result: # mount -a -v swap : ignored / : ignored /home : already mounted /windows/C : already mounted mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=10.1.3.35,unc=\\vstorage1\Faculty-Staff Data,user=george.olson,prefixpath=fsCampusDevFacilities$/Drawings,pass=******** /mounters/faithnetmnt : successfully mounted It looks like the main culprit was using %20 for a space in the path, instead of where I should have used \040. Great! It finally works! Thanks so much for your help! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
